You wanted us to rave if the build was good for us.

Here I go : I'm not yet very high level. I respecced fully a 63 fireball witch that I had given up several months ago ; she was my first character, self built and she was not only dealing ridiculous DPS -in the sense of the monsters saying "oh my god, did you actually try to hurt me ? LOL !" but she was also fragile (I was stuck at the beginning of merciless act 3). Yes, I achieved quite a success with her.

So my newly respecced and fully reequipped 63 witch has not died once since, gained four levels and has facetanked Corrupted Piety* in cruel, Dominus in Cruel, Piety in Merciless, several unique bosses of corrupted maps that I usually have to skit, retreat from or simply flee from with my other characters. And all that with 8 passives not yet spent. And the immortal call CWDT is not functionnal yet (lazy me has not bought CWDT yet). One potion from time to time is all that is needed.


*I facetanked several times the bloody ray of death that makes normal characters run in circles.

And stuff around me dies. All the time. Can't wait to end act 4 to map. I'll probably map before that in fact, as I can already go in maps 4 levels beyond mine easily.


I think the Ruined village map will be the test Ihope to pass : the bird boss has been a nightmare everytime I've tried him. In Zana maps that were actually lower level versions of the real map.

Wish I had the currency for a LC in warbands or Tempest... Damn !


Three points :

1. Tempest shield IS cool. I had never used it before, I love its gorgeous looks.

2. I followed your advice on high level CWDT with flame golem (that I already loved) and Molten shell. I would in fact advise against Flame golem with this support. I prefer to cast it manually (it does not die that often as it stays in the distance) and take another gem. I was thinking a high level Flame totem could be a cool DPS source and a lure for monsters (if short lived).

3. I think your build has one major flaw : how am I supposed to improve my skills if my character is so strong that I do not need to pay that much attention anymore ?



My gear, very close to what you advise (Lioneye's remorse is coming at level 70 !) :

Hey,

I have a question, not build related. What would be "safest/cheapest" way to get BBBRG on Lightning Coil Desert Brigandine? Vorici is level 5 and "at least two blue socket" is only option available to me. Should I go that way? Sorry for OT. Thanks in advance.

Hey man,

First of all, very much appreciate the time and effort you put into this. I just had one question, do you have any advice for leveling? Like skills and such and when to transition to incinerate? Or is this build only possible once youre high enough for the chest piece? thanks a ton!

Kitteh I've been a fan of your builds in the past, using your Arc witch back in Beyond to incredible success. I was happy to see that you've posted a new tank for 2.0, so thank you for your effort involved over the year.

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on a few concerns of mine as we play through this new league. I'm a Tempest player, so survivability while doing hard shit is always my top priority. I chose to focus on incinerate scion which attempts to cap block/spell block with MoM and so on (you know the drill). Despite this, there are things that absolutely terrify me in high level maps especially with the mods that I have to roll in order to reasonably sustain my map pool. A lot of your videos show the tankiness of a legacy coil and deep mana pool in action, but that damage ramp for 77+ maps is actually insane.

How do you think your build will compare in the deep end game? Will it dissolve under Daresso's blades before you have a chance to react? Will the lack of significant physical resistance hinder your ability to kill bosses of later maps? Have you tried them?

My current incinerator has 66 block/45 spell block (ish?) with about 5k hp and 2k ES (MoM/EB/Ghost Reaver). My build however lacks any kind of CoF or LC (too expensive) so I'm not gaining those benefits. So I'm curious to know if the perceived survivability that I have stacked in my build is actually inferior to yours, or vice versa?

Thanks for your thoughts!
